Good morning. 🌤️ Today, a stunning Roman glass bowl was discovered intact, a look at how The Philips Collection in DC is centering Black abstraction, and a report from Hakim Bishara on what visitors to the American Natural History Museum in NYC and others think about the removal of the controversial Roosevelt statue.

And at 7 pm EST today, join us for our inaugural event associated with the Emily H. Tremaine Journalism Fellowship for Curators. We’re talking to Tahnee Ahtone about curating for the Kiowa tribe and the special considerations that need to be taken when dealing with issues of Indigenous sovereignty.

How Does Native American Sovereignty Impact the Curation of Indigenous Art? A Conversation With Tahnee Ahtone, Kiowa Tribal Museum Director

Join us tonight at 7 pm (EST) for a special event with curator Tahnee Ahtone as she discusses the many facets of her curatorial work with the Kiowa Tribe and her recent Hyperallergic email exhibition, in which she treated readers to an exclusive viewing of the tribe’s important educational murals, previously on private view until now.
The conversation will explore how curation for a Native American community connects the realities of Native sovereignty and why it is crucial to include tribal governments when engaging with historical and artistic material related to their communities.
